A detailed install guide is coming soon, but for now the gist of this is just download the image, install balenaEtcher, and flash your SD Card.
Then, using either a different Linux computer (or booting your windows computer into linux using a USB Live Drive, Google it) you can resize and expand the fat32 partition to dualboot with your CFW, and/or expand the ext4 partition to make more room for Ubuntu programs and files.

The username and password are both "switch"

Rough Guide
What You'll Need:

Flash drive

microSD card (recommended size 32GB or higher)

Computer with internet connection, SD card slot, and USB ports

1. Download NOOBS (links above)
2. Download balenaEtcher: https://www.balena.io/etcher/
3. Download GParted Live: https://sourceforge.net/projects/gp...ve-1.0.0-1-amd64.iso/download?use_mirror=iweb
4. Copy all the files off of your SD Card to a safe location on your computer.
5. Install balenaEtcher.
7. Extract NOOBS.
6. Flash NOOBS to your SD card using balenaEtcher.
7. Flash GParted Live to your USB using balenaEtcher. (Note this will delete all files, backup accordingly. Also if you prefer Ubuntu Live or have a dual boot or different linux computer that works too).
8. Boot your computer into the GParted USB
9. Resize the partitions on your SD Card to whatever split you desire (fat32 will be for switch, ext4 for ubuntu)
10. Boot back into Windows
11. Copy all your SD files back to the FAT32 partition
12. Inject hekate, hit launch, more configs, and then L4T.
13. Once booted, swipe in from the top-right corner and hit system settings, and the Bluetooth settings. If any joycons are already listed, tap them and then tap the minus button to remove them.
14. Tap the plus button and the the sync button on one of your joycons. Wait for it to appear in the list, and then tap it and then "next". Repeat with the other joycon. Their LEDs should be flashing now.
15. Press L and R at the same time on your joycons. They should now both have only the first LED lit. You can now use the joycons wirelessly as a mouse or as a controller. You can slide them into the rails if you want a handheld experience, but they will still be connected over Bluetooth. Press L3 to toggle mouse control on/off. Bear in mind you will need to repeat steps 13-15 every reboot, although occasionally one joycon may remain paired between boots.

Found out the retroarch bug was caused by a glitch in the test branch I was using and not by anything from bylaws. I will post an updated image soon with the stable version of retroarch that is working.

Does the RA build you got have all the cores? Because I did everything correctly myself in setting everything up, and RA came with absolutely no cores when I downloaded it via the Terminal!

The testing retroarch I used in that initial image has a video driver bug but I will hopefully have a new image up with a working retroarch with cores soon.

@Sumandora you can currently compile and run Java and C++ programs. Use gedit to make a "Hello World" file and compile with terminal if you want to test. Are you sure you're not just looking for an IDE like Eclipse?

I see. What cores come with RA? Everything up to DC (be it Reicast or beetle-dc given recent events) and GC via the Dolphin core, or will Dolphin be strictly standalone? Just want to know what the options will be going into this once you get that video driver bug worked out, because I've been psyched to try this out for the past few weeks and hit a brick wall in terms of trying to get everything to work!

I currently have Dolphin installed standalone, I haven't checked to see if there's a dolphin core included in all the cores I have in RA yet. I'll check if there's any DC cores.

work great , but some setting are binded to your stuffs , like the joy con registered is the MAC adress of your joy con lol .

Unfortunately you actually have to remove and pair Joycons every time no matter what as far as I am aware (even if using the same two joycons with the same switch. But yeah I know that I left my other bluetooth devices paired like my mouse and keyboard, makes it easier if I have to reflash to make changes haha.

Not 100% true. About 1 out of 3-5 times one side or the other will reconnect. Obviously that's still low enough that it might as well be "reset every time," but there have been numerous rare occurances when one of my joy-cons is reconnected. It's a pleasent surprise every time. Oddly enough, my bluetooth keyboard is the other way around. It almost always reconnects.

Update with fixed Retroarch now posted as well as an early draft of installation guide.

Also @Silent_Gunner I checked and I"m pretty sure no Dolphin or Dreamcast cores installed (but def double check), but Dolphin works standalone. I'll look into either installing a DC core or a separate DC emulator in a future image.
